      Hmm, I don't think so, Cags-I got one too and think I'll find a better way to 'confirm our friendship!'

            I wasn't saying it was you, I got a message in the mail that one of my other Hubber friends wanted me to 'confirm our friendship.'  Her photos are apparently in FanBox.
            I decided against it!
            Sorry if I wasn't clear...I see I wasn't!

               Hey Laurel, no need to worry. I didn't think it had anything to do with me. I only said that, because you didn't reference the what the post was about.

   Welcome back Cagsil as for that TOS well, they can make a profit if its good and give the owner nothing in return? it's not fair @ all. Its legal robbery

      Thank you Dame Scribe. Always a pleasure to see you. And, I'll agree. It didn't sound good to me either.

   It just sounds like they can do whatever they want.

   There is a stink going on at AC because Yahoo bought the site and is posting articles submitted to AC on their Yahoo! site and stealing the page views from the AC writers.
   
   The TOS AC utilizes has been interpreted to mean Yahoo can even use Display Only content as well as the exclusive content AC pays upfronts for.  The Yahoo! site out ranks AC so the page views do not count on the writer's page view totals.  I think AC is offering $5.00 for the difference!  Phew!   
   
   Since Yahoo bought AC there have been many problems because of this TOS interpretation.  Beware all TOS agreements no matter where you write!
